He pārau a Meariki mā te iwi o Ngāi Kūwai. Ko āna mahi, he mahi i ngā hiahia o te rangatira, a Te Mihiau me te tiaki hoki i te puhi o te iwi, a Hineamuru. Ka kahakingia a Hineamuru e tētahi ruānuku, ka riro mā Meariki te puhi e pur̄ere mai. Ma Meariki rāua ko Pehi, tō Hineamuru tau, te huarahi mōrearea e takahi. Ka tūtakina ētahi tāngata rerekē - ko ētahi he pai, ko ētahi atu kāore i te pai. Nā te mea riki te mahi nui e tūtuki, a, i te mutunga iho, ka rokohina e Meariki tōna kōhau ake.
Meariki is a captive of Ngāi Kūwai. Her tasks are to serve the wishes of Te Mihiau, the rangatira, and to protect Hinamuru, the puhi of the iwi. When Hineamuru is kidnapped by a wizard, it is up to Meariki to rescue her. Meariki and Pehi (Hineamuru's sweetheart) tread a dangerous path. On the way they meet strange beings, both good and evil. 'Although she is only small [as her name 'Meariki' meaning 'small things' suggests], she is capable of achieving greatness, and finally she meets her own destiny.
